'Someone's memories'

I decide to buy a box of local herb tea. Might come in handy if snow actually decides to fall this winter. Nice sunny weather during the midday is a mark of winter 2018. I don't remember more sunny winter than this one. So, I 'm not complaining, just preparing the herbal tea stash. :D Don't know if you have ever tried herbal tea. I really like it. That tea is never boring. Its composition always depends on the spot where you've bought it and carries a local flavour. The guy is happy to sell, and I am very happy to buy. You cannot buy this quality in a supermarket.

I come across a photograph. The guy on the picture looks like the bartender in his younger days. To his right is an old coal iron. Guess every single thing here represents someone's memories.

A nostalgic vibe is definitely a mark of this pub. Fits with a mellow tune playing low from the corner. Sometimes I find nostalgia amusing but I generally rate it as downward feeling. Recently I've heard a good explanation as to why people listen to sad and nostalgic music. Apparently, it is a "safe", non-involving way to go through a sad feeling and remain in a good mood as soon as it ends. Thought that was interesting. Guess it depends upon a level of one's emotional involvement...

And here comes a downer... An unexpected hit in the belly. A TV is mounted on a window sill. Even though the sound is off, I cannot say that I appreciate. This place doesn't deserve a TV, a machine that easily breaks down the atmosphere and imposes its own. The good thing is that it is not very visible on the first sight because the screen is positioned against the light coming from the outside. When I was a child people used to say that TV is a window to the world. Here, TV became a window, to be fully metaphorical. :D

No clue what this is. It might be old-fashioned clothes material made on big wood machines called looms. I've seen them in museums. In some parts of the world, people are still using them. This is probably made out of sage. But, don't take my word for any of this. I am far from being an expert on the subject.

And off to the door. A numerous biker clubs stickers all over it. This must be one of the biker hangouts when travelling these parts of the country. Cannot say that I truly understand the need to stick it on the door of every pub you pass by. Guess, I'd have to join a biker club to find out. Not a chance... I value solo rides too much.

Just above the bar, there is a sign saying, "One more, and then we go?" I think they call this "last minute resistance" in the theory of sales. :D :D :D

Enjoy your day! :-)

I know the feeling when you don't expect it to be sunny, just like sunshine after the rain. It must've been beautiful. I hope to see any pictures you've taken.

Tea will protect your body from damage caused by aging and the adverse effects of air pollution. Then Blood clots are formed from cholesterol and platelets, this is the cause of heart attacks and strokes. Drinking tea can help keep the arteries smooth and clog-free. A study conducted over 5.6 years in the Netherlands found that people who drink tea at least two to three cups of tea every day are 70 percent lower risk of fatal heart attack than non-tea drinkers, and A study found that people who drink tea for 10 years or more have strong bones, even after adjusting for age, weight, exercise, merck and other risk factors, than those open tea drinkers. The authors suggest that this may be due to the abundance of beneficial phytochemicals in tea.
